Hi,
among the recent action for python2 genocide on TW, asciidoc is also its target. Unfortunately, there are still lots of packages that rely on asciidoc for generating man pages and documents, hence simply dropping it shall result in many build breakage.
Now my question is what action we should take.
A: Drop asciidoc package now and let each package maintainer fixing each broken one.
B: Find an alternative, python3 variant of asciidoc (likely a downstream one).
C: Replace with asciidoctor. I've tested with a hackish bash script to make it more compatible with asciidoc.
D: Any other option?
There is also https://asciidoc3.org/
It's meant as option B.
The asciidoc community officially has a Python 3 port with asciidoc-py3. Fedora's asciidoc package already switched to it some time ago.
Oh that's a good news. Then I'll just wait for the taker of the new package :) thanks, Takashi -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner@opensuse.org
